TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH, THE CONTACT BLACKED OUT. AS A RESULT, THE VEHICLE RAN A STOP SIGN AND CRASHED INTO A CONCRETE BARRICADE. THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED MINOR BRUISES THAT DID NOT REQUIRE MEDICAL ATTENTION. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A TOW LOT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER OR AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 40,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE STEERING WHEEL SEIZED AND BECAME EXTREMELY HARD TO MANEUVER. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED BY A DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS EXCLUDED FROM NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V144000 (STEERING). THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 85,100.

THE CAR HAS STALLED THREE TIMES, TWICE ON THE HIGHWAY, ONCE LOSING POWER STEERING. TWICE ACCELERATING AT 5 AND 50 MPH AND ONCE IDLING AT 30 MPH. BATTERY AND CHARGING SYSTEM ERRORS ON DASH. EACH TIME, PULLING OVER, GOING TO PARK, AND RESTARTING WORKS. CRANK POSITION SENSOR WAS REPLACED AFTER SECOND STALL BASED ON ENGINE CODE P0339.

ELECTRIC POWER STEERING: AT TIMES CAR WOULD PULL VERY HARD TO EITHER THE LEFT OR RIGHT AT LOW SPEEDS. THE PULL WAS SO STRONG THAT IT WOULD PULL YOU OFF OF THE ROAD IF YOU WEREN'T GRIPPING THE STEERING WHEEL FIRMLY. THE PROBLEM WOULD PERSIST UNTIL THE VEHICLE SPEED REACHED APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP, AND AFTER GETTING THE CAR TO REPLICATE THE PROBLEM, THEY RAN A DIAGNOSTIC AND DETERMINED 'TORQUE SENSOR FOR STEERING OUT OF WHACK NEEDS BOTH GEAR, COLUMN, AND ECM COMPUTER.' THE 2015 CAMRY HAS A RECALL ON THE ELECTRIC POWER STEERING BUT I AM TOLD MY CAR IS NOT PART OF THIS RECALL. THIS COULD BE A DANGEROUS DEFECT IF THE PROBLEM OCCURRED UNEXPECTEDLY IN HEAVY TRAFFIC.

STEERING WHEEL LOSE CONTROL AND THE HAS TO BE HELD DOWN, TAKING THE WHEELS OUT OF CONTROL AND SWAYS FROM SIDE TO SIDE, SOMETIMES ON THE LEFT SOME TIMES ON THE RIGHT (STEERING WHEEL ASSIST)

THE CAR CLOCK HAS BEEN RUNNING FAST (4-5 MINUTES AFTER SIX MONTHS) STARTING FROM THE DATE PURCHASED (MAY 2015). MORE CRITICALLY, THE CLOCK STARTED TO SUDDEN CHANGE THE TIME AFTER STARTING THE CAR ENGINE. THE CLOCK SUDDEN CHANGE ISSUES HAVE HAPPENED THREE TIMES RECENTLY (FIRST ONE IN SEPTEMBER 2017, SECOND ONE IN JANUARY 2018, AND THIRD ONE IN APRIL 2018). ALTHOUGH IT REFLECTS ON CLOCK CHANGING BUT IT IS NOT SURE IF THE PROBLEM COULD BE EVEN MORE SERIOUS (LIKE ENGINE....). I CONTACTED THE TOYOTA DEALER AND TOYOTA CUSTOMER SERVICE REGARDING THE ISSUES IN JANUARY 2018 AND APRIL 2018. HOWEVER, THEY ACKNOWLEDGED THE PROBLEM BUT REFUSED TO TAKE CARE OF ISSUES. PLEASE HELP US TO MAKE THE MANUFACTURER TO TAKE UP THEIR RESPONSIBILITIES. THANKS.

WHEN I ACCELERATE 40 MPH OR HIGHER, MY CAR GIVES ME A SUDDEN SHUDDER IN THE VEHICLE. IT FEELS LIKE RUNNING OVER A ROUGH SPOT IN THE ROAD OR LIKE A RUMBLE BEFORE YOU REACH A TOLL BOOTH. AS QUICKLY AS IT APPEARS, IT IS GONE, UNTIL THE NEXT TIME IT APPEARS. MY CAR HAS ABOUT 95,000 MILES ON IT CURRENTLY AND I HAVE TAKEN TO SEVERAL SHOPS AND THEY ALL SAY THAT, TORQUE CONVERTER IS MAKING THAT SHUDDER WHICH IS RELATED TO TRANSMISSION AND MIGHT COST ME AROUND $2000 TO FIX. IF ANYONE FACE THE SAME ISSUE, PLEASE MAKE A REPORT SO THAT NHTSA CAN LOOK INTO IT.

THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED WAS JULY 2017. I WAS IN THE CITY SLOWED DOWN AND GOT IN WAY OF ON COMING TRAFFIC TURN LEFT ONTO ANOTHER STREET THE CAR JUST STALLED AND SAT THERE. NO POWER AT ALL. I TRIED PRESSING THE GAS, NOTHING, AFTER SEVERAL SECONDS IT FINALLY MOVED ACROSS WITH MOMENTS TO SPARE. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES. IT HAS COME TO THE POINT WHERE I DON'T MOVE ACROSS TO TURN UNLESS THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO TRAFFIC. THIS LOSS OF POWER SEEMS TO BE GETTING WORSE WHERE I NOW GET THIS SAME PROBLEM WHEN JUST DRIVING DOWN A STREET. THE FIRST TIME I TOOK IT TO TOYOTA I TOLD THEM I WANTED TO HAVE A DIAGNOSTIC TEST, ALL THEY DID WAS TOOK IT FOR A TEST DRIVE AND FOUND NOTHING WRONG WITH IT.THE NEXT TIME I MADE AND APPOINTMENT TO GET IT SERVICED I ASKED THEM AGAIN. THIS TIME THEY COMPLETELY IGNORED ME AND DID NOTHING AT ALL. THERE IS A NOTATION THAT I WANTED IT CHECKED FOR THE LOSS OF POWER BUT NOTHING WAS NOTATED AS BEING DONE. THIS IS GETTING SO DANGEROUS, I HATE TO DRIVE IT. THE CAR HAS JUST UNDER 22000 MILES.

MY CAR MAKES THIS SOUND ON THE FRONT WHEN YOU GO 30MPH ALREADY CHANGE TIRE LIKE 3 TIME ROTORS ONES STRUTS BRAKES N IT JUST THIS NOISE THAT IS ANNOYING
